PART 204_EMPLOYMENT RELATION--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 204.2  Employment relation--determination by the Board.

    The existence or non-existence of an employment relation, as defined 
in this part, is a conclusion which must be reached by the Board or its 
authorized officers or employees upon the basis of the evidence before 
the agency. The employer and the employee are the principal sources of 
evidence with respect to a determination whether an employment relation 
existed, but the Board will not be bound by the mere conclusion of the 
employer or the employee that the employee had or did not have an 
employment relation.
